Seeking parental information on John McHugh, who was born abt. 1851.
He was married 15 April 1871 to Bridget Hynes in Calry Parish.

Sligo / Marriage Michael Cunningham to Mary McCann
« on: Monday 05 December 11 17:08 GMT (UK)  »
Seeking information and family links to Michael Cunningham and Mary McCann, both born abt. 1812.  Married abt. 1832 in Co. Sligo.
They had at least one child, also Michael, born abt. 1842.
Michael (2nd) emigrated to Glasgow sometime before Jan. 1868, as he was married there to Elizabeth King.  Story has it that they met on the boat to Scotland, so not sure where in Ireland Elizabeth was from, but her parents were George King and Elizabeth Patterson.

My 1st post, folks.  Thanks for any help!
